Been watching cup since Davy Allison was my driver! Dales pass in the grass has just been replaced as the coolest ever!

[@richardcox8409]

No way that tops "pass in the grass" , it ranks up there and I can think of other contenders as well but imho ....Sr didnt have a wall to lean on, it was twice the speed and if Sr hadnt saved the car when he got back on track B Elliot and a lotta others woulda had a bad day......no comparison other than both were ballsy "outside the box" maneuvers that payed off. If he had failed we wouldnt be having this convo. I used to watch Davey's Dad Bobby race and his uncle Donnie and then Davey came along. Davey was a huge loss, I have been a Sr fan since 84.....i feel your pain......

[@michaelpennington8410]

For those who think what Ross did wasn't fair and that it's a bad look for the sport and don't like it... you should tell NASCAR to get rid of this stupid point system. The points format makes drivers do crazy stuff like this. If NASCAR doesn't like intentional wrecks and stunts like what Ross did... get rid of the points system that not only encourages it but also rewards it. Good for Ross. I hope he takes it down next week. Side note: There's a 99% chance this move gets banned next year. NASCAR will call it a safety issue. Mark my words. NASCAR can't be having the 2nd place driver doing this every year. And again... 100% on NASCAR... don't hate on Ross.

[@TheCursedDay]

Denny has got to be fuming right now. After all the problems he's had with Chastain all year, Chastain does this to knock him out of the championship 4. 😂😂

[@otsoko3938]

"why didn't I think of that" because he races with logic, not like a kid with no respect for his life or others. I am over nascar if they allow that to stand, it will just start a trend of unsafe childish tactics until we end up losing another great driver
